The ledger
Every forecast, its timestamp, and its mark
Append-only. Entries are added before the outcome is known and never edited afterwards. The ledger opens with the prison population entry; the rest appear as they are registered.
Registered 0. Open 0. Closed 0. Nothing scored yet; first marks land in October.
| Forecast | Series | Benchmark | Made | Next mark | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nothing registered yet. The first entries are committed to the public repository from 12 September and appear here the moment they are. The ledger starts empty because a ledger that starts full should not be believed. | |||||
Every row links to the entry in the public repository and to the commit that registered it. Made is the commit date; Benchmark names the publisher and vintage; the claim is the exact sentence registered, unedited. How the ledger works.
